    You may have also noticed today. The re brand of MINI. The black background branding is going and new MINI logo I'm not so sure about the logo personally. Probably get shot for saying that.

    you will see the new branding on all Clubman marketing materials etc

    Lost as to where MINI is going here, the 'back end' is just horrendous.
    I'm sorry but when did we last see a product we longed for....... Who's bought what in the new hatch / clubman range?

    It looks like they've taken the Countryman lights and tuned them on their side, the more I see it the more I don't like it, don't mind the interior but the exterior just doesn't seem right :(

    You only need two tools in life WD40 and Duct Tape. If it doesn't move and should use WD40 and if it moves and shouldn't use Duct Tape.

    But then I think that means "exactly the same as an old one, or the one I own now".

    As an F56 owner for almost a year, I've grown accustomed to all the non-likers.

    But also in that year I've never felt the need to go onto an R53/R56 thread and say I don't like them, what's the point, it all gets very boring.

    I was looking for a clubman originally, but couldn't find anything I like in the Aberdeen area, so when the F56 came out I went in for a nosey, and was impressed by the interior, handling, and the saleswoman

    Now the mini suits me fine just now, I'm divorced so normally just have my kids at weekends. They're 12 and 10 and fit quite nicely in the back, but the problem is they won't stop growing, so the next car will probably be a more door, and the clubman may well fit the bill, depending on the price - need to see some better colours though, met red I don't like on any car.

    Out of curiosity, what do you guys think of the existing derivatives? While waiting for my car I had a countryman demo which I really liked, a convertible which I liked but not practical for me and a paceman which I didn't like/didn't get.
